A weekly journey across the landscape of the collective soul. In this series, “In Search of Soul” we explore the diverse ways people stumble into, recognize or craft their sense of soul and its expression in the world. Each interview attempts to put language to experiences and expressions that often defy clear description. Weaving in the voice of each person, Dan reflects on the key themes that emerge within each conversation while April spends time exploring the back stories that emerge as the matrix from which a meaningful life develops. Each episode provides some insight into how you might construct your own deep and vibrant sense of soul. So, give yourself a moment to journey a little deeper into the human experience. Welcome to Soul Forum. Curated by: Dan Senter, who brings over 35 years of experience engaging in the spiritual journey with individuals, congregations, and the community. April Bell, founder of Tree of Life Legacies, a storytelling and wisdom keeping project in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Victoria grew up going to catholic schools. As a GenX’r she has lost her zeal for the trappings of organized religion and yet continues to seek the impulse that may still beat within the origins and mystical experiences that rest under the trappings of religious life. Through a capacity for stillness and receptivity, she discovers some greater sense of life that rises up to meet her. Are there places and moments in life that invite you to strive less and simply soften into the gracious capacity of life to hold you close?

In this episode, April sits down with Candy, a passionate and committed social activist who supports causes that move us toward living in a world that works for everyone. She’s a creative woman, who's been running her own communications and marketing consultancy for over thirty years now. What's truly inspiring about Candy, is her incredible resilience in the face of the challenges life has thrown her way. With each experience she has embodied true grace, and chosen growth, expansion, and love above all else, consistently leading a heart-centered life. We hope you too will be inspired by her unique and intuitively guided path.

Candy has a way of digging deep into her life experiences to find an authentic “through-line” that tethers her present moment to the trajectory of her life. There is something generative about living as a full expression of your authentic self. Her honest embrace of her winding story is a testimony to the capacity to find meaning within every story, your story! What is the thread that weaves its way through your story that might tether to your authentic self?

Building on the previous episode, Dan reflects on the characteristics of ritual that underpin the impact they have on our lives, and proposes that we explore the creation of rituals for our time. Given this recording took place a few days prior to Winter Solstice, a simple ritual tethered to the natural world provides an example of how you might craft rituals that work for you. How do you create moments that take you deeper into your experience of life?

Bob and Joan have spent a lifetime living into the challenges and opportunities of organized religion. Both have found something similar in the mechanism they use to tap into their sense of soul. One in the swimming pool, one in the ritual of communion. How do we foster the capacity to deeply connect to each other, the world and the ideas that help shape our lives? What are the simple practices you nurture that draw you into an expanded awareness of life and your own growing edges.
